Wrote this many years ago, recorded it a couple of years ago.  You can hear it on my SoundCloud page.  One of those “really amused myself while writing it” things.  As a Jon Lovitz character on SNL used to say, “lower your standards.”

 

All I wanted was a house in the suburbs

With a white picket fence and very healthy yard

And a paper towel dispenser hangin’ in my brand new kitchen

Is that too much to ask?

Oh, is that too much to ask?

 

Then all I wanted was a studio apartment

With hardwood floors and a very funky smell

And a few of my friends to drop by and watch some football

Is that too much to ask?

Oh, is that too much to ask?

 

Then all I wanted was a nice little lady

Who could cook me up some grits and wash my faded jeans

And love me in the evenin’ like a busty pin-up poster

Is that too much to ask?

Oh, is that too much to ask?

 

Now all I want is a shack in south Missouri

With dirt-covered windows and a broken old screen door

And a hefty little woman who tries to hide her moustache

Is that too much to ask?

Oh, is that too much to ask?
